Michigan’s Alger County is expected to see snow accumulations between 4 and 13 inches of snow and hazardous conditions that will affect holiday travel, according to a blizzard warning for the area that is in effect until 7 p.m. Eastern time as of reporting.

Forget a white Christmas. Folks across the far northern tier of the nation will see a white Thanksgiving, with mounds of snow likely in coming days.

A large area of accumulating snow will spread from the Rockies and High Plains to much of the Midwest throughout the weekend. Motorists and airline passengers alike should anticipate substantial travel delays.

For those traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday, a series of winter weather alerts could have big impacts on road trip plans.

A brewing storm is expected to primarily be a rainmaker, though some snow is possible along its northern edges.
